Every single member of staff was excellent and attentive! My room was cleaned daily and to a good standard. I had an amazing sea facing room and enjoyed sitting outside on the balcony when it was raining (rainy season). The sunbeds were comfortable and charging stations were right beside them. Food was good, though it could do with a little more seasoning. Still, there was variety to choose from.

The room at our accommodation was exceptionally well-equipped, and the view from our balcony was truly awe-inspiring. We were pleased to find that the room was cleaned daily, and the attentive staff made us feel right at home throughout our stay. The water pressure in the shower exceeded our expectations and was the best we have experienced in Africa. We had no issues with hot water, ensuring refreshing showers at all times. Additionally, the breakfast was included in our package. It is worth mentioning that each day, we were treated to a different and diverse selection of breakfast options, surpassing even the offerings of some resorts. Although dinner was not included, the prices were remarkably affordable. Having a lacto-ovo-vegetarian diet, we were pleasantly surprised by the menu's ability to cater to our needs and provide satisfying meals. The chef's expertise in preparing the food was evident, as every dish was incredibly delicious. We would also like to commend Alex, our host, and Dulla, our waiter, for their extensive experience with tourists. They were always available to provide valuable information and assist in organizing excursions.

We had a wonderful time at this hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel at home from the very beginning. The location is perfect, just a few steps away from the beach, and the atmosphere is both relaxing and authentic. We also loved the food – it was absolutely delicious and one of the highlights of our stay. What we liked the most was the combination of the amazing staff, the great location, and the quality of the food. Everything came together to create a truly memorable experience.

    The sea and beach with super soft and white sand are absolutely fabulous and relatively clean. I got bitten by sand fleas on my legs because I spend a lot of time in the sea and walked barefoot. There is a lot of informal trade on the beach by locals trying to sell something. Maybe even more so if you are a woman walking alone.

    The location is great, just a minute from the ocean, there are a lot restaurants both expensive and very local ones, no issues with electricity, hot shower and air-con and the safe box. Card and cash payment is acceptable. Very safe to stay and walk around even at night, the owner is very kind and trustworthy. Very basic breakfast but it OK, no TV and fridge in the room, internet is breaking so often especially in the room, but it works perfectly at the balcony. It is very budget friendly and highly recommend it.

    Long walks on the beach, swimming even during low tide. Some attractions are quite far and transport is expensive. Safari Blue Tour, Swimming with dolphins and turtles, Stonetown and the Serenity Spa were awesome. The trip advisor at the hotel assisted with bookings.

    In general, the hotel was okay, with an excellent location.

    In general, the hotel was okay, with an excellent location. However, there were some issues to address: The breakfast had a good variety of food, but unfortunately, warm items were cold. When I requested my sausages to be reheated, they were returned cold, accompanied by a surprised question about wanting them hot. It would be better if the staff anticipated the preference for warm breakfast items. The bed was so uncomfortable, causing back pain every morning. I tried all sides of mattress, and anyways there was a pit regardless of the position. This might be specific to only my bed, but it needs attention. The restaurant offers good food at reasonable prices, and the waiters speaks good English and are polite ( except trainees) Cleanless! Room was clean and tide, but there were several diferent bugs around, but its Africa, you just need to ask to spray your room for bugs (i asked but they never did) and you need to ask for wc paper and ask for clean towels. Water pression in the shower and hot water was very good. Unfortunately AC didnt wor for last 2 nights. I guess a gas just finished, but noone came to check on it, just excuses about low voltage. Well, when voltage was low even fridge was not working, bet when voltage restored AC and fridge worked excellent. Water got frozen in the fridge in 1h - so thats not a low voltage at all. Despite the issues, I tought I would consider to come back, but after last 2 nights struggles, I doubt about it. Particularly I would suggest a room with a sea view and small private pool, keeping in mind that perfection may not exist in every aspect, especially in a place like Zanzibar.

    We liked the amazing colour of the ocean and the white sands prob the best of Zanzibar. The food was amazing.The pool was refreshing right opposite the beach we really loved lazing on the hammock and swinging on the swing. The staff was fantastic amazing people very friendly especially with my daughters. They took good care of them always checking to see if they are okay.

    Everything was great! Accommodation quality is amazing for Zanzibar standards but the best thing about this place is Villa's staff, especially Dula. He will help you with EVERYTHING and go the extra mile each time. Location of the place is also great, 4 minutes to the beach, loads of shops and cafes around and it feels safe
